During the verses a second guitar just picks the chords, but the first
guitar strums them.  I'm not entirely sure about the F#m at the end of
the chorus...I wasn't sure about any of the chords until I found a
live acoustic version from some Dutch radio station.
AI know he C#mknocks you off your F#mfeet
You're so Dmbitter you think he's Asweet
Well he's C#mwrong for you I BmswearD

There was Dmnever a role for Ahim
It was alwC#mays you and mBme, just mDe
Chorus
F#mPopulC#mar meBmchanics for Abroken hearts
Can G#help me F#mnow
AI know you nC#mever felt romF#mance
And we alwDmays lacked suspAense
But I can C#medit those pBmarts outD  
AI never made yC#mou feel complF#mete
